1.ok first you need to start with your image. it does not matter what it is, as it is almost unrecognisable
now set a motion blur so that the image looks similiar to this.

PLEASE NOTE: this next part is for the text. if it is just for the image, skip to step 4

2.now put the blurred image and text on seperate layers

make your text white

now add an outer glow with the following properties

3. now grab your smudge tool, here we can have some fun ;). set hardness to 50 and set master diameter to test out your text. when you find a good size, start bluring like i have.

Duplicate the original image and blur the top one
take a 30 - 50% opacity eraser over the focus of your image in this case the audi
Then carry on with the rest of the tutorial, It gives more focus :winker:
